Mavs always shoot to play every game with energy and effort

Although the Dallas Mavericks are down two superstars, there are two things coach Jason Kidd acknowledged that his team can always

control.

Their energy and their effort.

“We always shoot for 82 (games) with the energy and effort,” Kidd said. “That’s one of the things we talk about internally is what can you control.

“You can’t control makes and misses or minutes or attempts. But the energy and effort are the things that we’ve talked about since day one.”

The Mavs expended a lot of energy and effort on Sunday afternoon at American Airlines Center, but still came up short, losing to the Denver Nuggets, 110-101.
